This sounds amazing! Have it bookmarked. Great post! :)


This works for me! Sounds delicious!


This is a must try for our next family get-together where Mexican food is featured...which will probably be soon. I get Cooking Light...how did I miss this one? Thanks for posting this recipe!


This recipe may be light on calories but it dosen't sound like it's light on flavor...I will be trying this one soon, thanks.


This is one of my favourite dips. I make it almost the same way, but I find that Black Diamond processed cheese is much nicer than any other processed cheddar for this dip. I think there are less additives, resulting in a cleaner taste JMHO of course

Black Diamond processed cheddar in place of velvetta or any other processed cheese, cleaner taste for some reason.
